Chapter 305: You were alive! 2

[The fish Heirloom has activated . ]

[The Bodhisattva is descending . ]

An extremely bright light flashed through the Grand Canyon . It wasn’t just any kind of light .

It was a holy light that filled people with both awe and fear .

The enemies clearly saw it inside the light . They saw the appearances of some marvelous creatures inside that radiant gold light .

One was on a fish . Next to that Bodhisattva were more Bodhisattvas on elephants, lions, etc .

“W, what is that?”

They were all shocked but Ju-Heon’s eyes were sparkling .

“Little punk, I was wondering what you earned . ”

Fish .

The fish represented Jesus Christ for Christianity and served as a revered figure for many ancient faiths .

However, fish were very often associated with Buddhism and could be found in many temple decorations as well .

Dan’s Heirloom was Buddha’s Heirloom .

Messages confirming that to be true popped up as well .

[The Buddha is descending . ]

[The Buddha is descending . ]

Could this freely swimming fish should be related to the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism?

‘If the Bodhisattva is a fish then rebirth would be the water . ’

There were many different concepts related to fish in Buddhism .

It was even said that Buddha came down in the form of a fish as well .

One of them was the Amitabha .

As the fish praising Namo Amitabha, it was said to be the form of Buddha that had appeared to give people rebirth in the Amitabha Land of Bliss .

Amitabha was the Buddha trying to let people be reborn into a world of paradise .

However, the enemies looking at this Heirloom wondered what it was .

“A f, fish?”

“What artifact is that?!”

“Who cares?! Just ignore it and grab Seo Ju-Heon!”

But at that moment…

Flash!

“Aaaaaaaaah!”

There was another bright light and some of the enemies became unconscious .

“Aaaaaaaaaaah . ”

Some more enemies suddenly screamed before they fainted .

“What the hell?!”

Those people had all screamed before they could even reach Ju-Heon .

Some of them turned into animals while others quickly turned into mummies .

Any of the enemies who were within the radius of that light ended up being affected .

The rest of the enemies became anxious .

“W, what is that?!”

Ju-Heon smiled while looking at what was going on .

‘What else would it be?’

[The Bodhisattva with the name of Sun and Moon has incarnated . ]

[He is trying to bring rebirth to all those who touch the light of the sun . ]

[Those who cannot clear their evil hearts will fall into one of the three evil paths, the path of hungry ghosts, the path of animals, or the path of hell . ]

Basically, anybody touched by the sunlight would be punished by the three evil paths .

Any human who was greedy about artifacts would definitely deserve to fall into one of the three evil paths .

The enemies who were in the shadow of the Grand Canyon were safe .

However, staying in the shadows meant that they were stuck .

Dan suddenly disappeared at that moment .

He seemed to be moving at the speed of light .

‘!’

Dan then appeared in front of the enemies and moved his index finger toward one of the enemy’s faces .

He was giving off a chilling overbearing pressure .

He then struck the person .

To be more specific, he brushed past the person .

That was probably the reason .

The enemies who had jumped in shock once Dan appeared started swearing .

“Fuck, I was shocked! You retard!”

“You missed!”

However…

Poooooow!

“U, uggh . ”

“Aaaaaaaaaak!”

They were ruthlessly sent flying a few seconds later by what felt as if a car weighing a ton had struck them .

That wasn’t all .

The ones who were hit looked quite odd .

“Damn it, my body . My body!”

The originally buff people turned extremely skinny while the handsome ones turned ugly .

Messages appeared in front of Ju-Heon at a scary pace .

[Aiding in reincarnation . ]

[Aiding in reincarnation . ]

[Aiding in reincarnation . ]

[One should not use artifacts to trick people about one’s appearance . ]

Ju-Heon started laughing out loud as if he was crazy .

‘Aiding my ass . ’

“He’s a total apostate monk!”

He finally understood it .

Dan’s Heirloom was an artifact to call forth Buddha and the Bodhisattvas .

Basically, it was inviting Buddha or the Bodhisattvas temporarily into his body . He probably had some other ones he could call forth as well .

As proof of that……

“Fuck, why the hell am I trying to get things like artifacts?”

“There’s no point!”

The enemies’ minds were being reformed to lose all desires .

“This bastard! He turned into a bird!”

Dan would also turn into a bird to fly away or heal himself as needed, showing numerous powers in the process .

Turning into a bird was probably Guanyin Bodhisattva . Healing himself might be through the pharmacist Bodhisattva .

In addition…

“I shall send you to a Land of Bliss . ”

Dan’s eyes flashed and an extremely large golden fish appeared .

This was the Buddha who was said to reside in the Land of Bliss .

It was Amitabha of the Namo Amitabha chant .

The artifact started speaking to the enemies .

[You won’t have any worries or pain in the Land of Bliss . There will be no end to life, no crime, and everyone will be happy . ]

It sounded really nice .

But what did it really mean?

‘It means that they will die . ’

And even if it was Buddha’s artifact, this bastard was still an artifact . Would a Land of Bliss that an artifact takes you to really be a good place for humans?

Of course not .

Flash!

The golden fish squirmed like a dragon and then flashed its eyes, making the enemies scream .

The enemies in its path all fell to the ground .

They had all fallen into a dream that they could never awaken from .

It was at that moment .

The rest of the enemies who were blankly watching started to shout .

“Fuck! My teammates!”

“Aim for Seo Ju-Heon first!”

“Retrieve the Chairman-nim’s body!”

Ju-Heon snorted as the enemies charged toward him .

“These stupid idiots . I’m really going to wash my feet and go to bed . ”

Jaeha’s eyes flashed once Ju-Heon stepped forth .

“Wow, jackpot . The Captain-nim’s going to show his skills?”

Ju-Heon looked at him with a scowl before kicking someone in the butt .

“Go . I choose you, Monarch of Pillage . ”

“?!”

The one he kicked was Julian .

“Your Heirloom is the only one left now, you bastard . ”

“………”

‘Are you really going to do this?!’

Julian’s hands were shaking . Julian decided to just activate his artifact as the enemies approached .

‘You’re dead now, Seo Ju-Heon . I’ll make you pay the price for making me call forth my Heirloom . ’

Crack, craaackle!

What he activated was a thunderbolt .

However, it was definitely different from his usual thunderbolt .

“Those who respond to me with lies will receive divine punishment . Those who hold back the truth will also receive divine punishment . ”

Julian smiled wickedly .

“!”

“First, I have desired my team member’s wife or girlfriend . ”

“W, what?”

“Second, I have thought that my superior next to me is a dumbass . ”

“!”

“Third, I have screwed over a close friend to get a promotion . ”

“Fourth, I have been attracted to a team member of the same sex . ”

“Fifth, I would be willing to stab the person next to me for 1 billion dollars . ”

The enemies stiffened up in confusion .

‘What kind of fucking questions are these?!’

“Pfft, why would we answer those questio……”

Thunderbolts started to strike down at that moment .

“Aaaaaah!”

The enemies then realized that there were things written on the ground by their feet as well .

They each had different questions . They had all received different questions in addition to the original five questions .

They started grinding their teeth after seeing the questions they received .

“Fuck, you really want us to answer these?!”

“Why the hell should we answer?!”

Julian smiled brightly .

“You will receive divine punishment if you don’t answer in 5 seconds . ”

People urgently started to shout .

“Fuck! There’s no way I think that my superior is a dumbass…… I respect Chairman Kwon more than I respect my own father!”

“Liar . ”

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumble!

“Do you really think I would sell out my teammates?! Get lost!”

“It looks like you have . ”

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumble!

“M, my last kiss……was before I came to the tomb! It was yesterday, you son of a bitch!”

“Survey says, you’ve never kissed anybody in your life . ”

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumble!

The others couldn’t believe it .

“How dare you think negatively of the Chairman-nim!”

“Hey, what the hell?! You always show off about all the girls you screwed! You said you were popular!”

“But you were actually a #Foreveralone…… what a poor bastard . ”

“What the hell? You son of a bitch . You were the reason my promotion got denied?!”

“You were gay?! What the hell man?!”

It was quite chaotic .

A portion of the Grand Canyon had turned into pandemonium . The agitated enemies started to fight each other .

They were in no mood to get Ju-Heon . Julian scoffed and then decided to turn toward Ju-Heon .

Why?

‘I asked the team members the questions too . ’

He was so angry that he asked everybody questions .

However, he made it so that only Ju-Heon would be struck by thunderbolt based on the question .

He heard a scream from the group and turned around .

“Seo Ju-Heon . That’s why you shouldn’t keep asking me to take my Heirloom ou……”

But what?

“Damn it……!”

“U, ugh!”

Ju-Heon was fine while Jaeha and Ilya were on the ground after being struck by thunderbolts .

They were completely burnt and barely opening and closing their mouths .

Julian was truly flabbergasted .

“W, what the hell……?”

As for the questions written underneath their feet…

[I have desired my team member’s wife or girlfriend . ]

[I would be willing to stab the person next to me for 1 billion dollars . ]

Both of them must have answered, ‘No . ’

But Jaeha and Ilya felt wronged .

Why?

“Damn it, is peeking at the numerous women gathering around the Captain-nim really desiring them?! Huh?!”

“Why?! I don’t need 1 billion dollars! I would stab him for 10 cents!”

‘D, damn it . ’

As he had that thought…

“I got you know . ”

“!”

Ju-Heon, who seemed to be fine despite the questions, had a glimmer in his eyes .

“Kongming, you have a really good Heirloom . ”

Ju-Heon seemed to like Julian’s Heirloom quite a bit .

And then…

“Your Heirloom is Haetae right? Isn’t it?”

Ju-Heon wickedly motioned with his hand .

Julian screamed as the Crow’s aura came out of Ju-Heon’s body .

“U, ugh!”

Chairman Kwon was in serious pain .

The people at Pandora were full of whispers while watching this talking head .

“Wow, only his head is alive . ”

Kwon Hyuk Soo had worked his ass off to search the Grand Canyon to find Chairman Kwon’s head .

But Ju-Heon had the important body .

Chairman Kwon seemed to be in pain and had trouble breathing since a while ago .

Maybe the head could feel the pain the body was facing .

“……What the hell are those fuckers doing to my body?! Ugh!”

The others became serious .

“This is bad . The Chairman-nim’s body should have the artifact he contracted . ”

Well, logically speaking, nobody should be able to take away a Possession-type artifact .

“Those bastards would even chop apart the Chairman-nim’s body to take it . ”

“Uggggggh!”

They really seemed to be dissecting his body right now .

Anyway, Chairman Kwon was in quite the pickle right now .

He was alive right now even when his body and head were separated because of the evil god artifact, but his artifact was not a phoenix .

It was completely different from Jaeha’s artifact that could restore any body part that falls off .

‘I need to put my head back together with my body . ’

This situation would only continue if he didn’t!

“Damn it . I don’t have enough memories . ”

Prometheus chimed in at that moment .

“You said that you saw memories of what seemed to be a past life?”

“That’s right . Ugh!”

Prometheus turned serious . He had an idea as to what had happened .

‘Did that Crow bastard use the Akashic records?’

Even he and the Spider Supreme Leader could not use that library .

Why?

‘That library harms an artifact’s foundation . ’

It was a place where the records of the universe were located . Artifacts were living beings that were born from human culture and memories .

Basically, someone could mess with the Akashic records to make an artifact disappear and become born renewed .

If the myth or culture changed, the artifact could disappear .

That was why it was not an artifact that just anybody could use .

‘That damn Crow bitch . ’

Was she planning on doing the same thing as she did in the past? Was she trying to get rid of the artifacts again?

Returning back to Ju-Heon and the others…

“You hid it because you were embarrassed to get Haetae after getting the Monarch of Pillage title . Isn’t that right?”

“It’s not!”

Julian was groaning in pain .

He had been gobbled up by the Crow as soon as Ju-Heon found out his Heirloom was Haetae .

Well, it tried to eat him but failed .

Haetae had run away in disgust .

‘Haetae is an imaginary creature focused on law and justice . ’

It was known for ripping apart evil things and determining what was right and wrong .

It was often seen as a symbol for lawyers .

In that sense, it suited the just Julian quite well . It’s ability was fitting as well .

‘Everything other than the fact that his title is the Monarch of Pillage . ’

“Anyway, Haetae seems to be quite useful for determining truth and lies . ”

Ju-Heon’s eyes flashed as he chased after the escaped Haetae .

However, there was an artifact that was fuming with anger as it watched .

[Human, don’t ignore me!]

Mammon was boiling with rage .

‘Your partner artifact is right here so why do you keep looking at other artifacts?!’

There was a different reason she was so angry as well .

[Why the hell did you contract with the Crow?!]

“?”

That was right .

Mammon was angry about that .

[That Crow is basically the artifact that killed you! Why did you have to contract with such a bitch?!]

Even if the Crow had not actually killed him, Ju-Heon had died in the Crow’s tomb .

She started speaking as if she could not accept it .

[I’ll give you 1,000 Divine-Grade artifacts . Take me as your Heirloom . ]

Ju-Heon immediately responded .
